we alcoholics leave quite a trail of wreckage in our path. it can take a very long time sometims to clean it up and earn trust, which is earned through actions.
i got a lil jacked up when poeple in my life were apprehensive of me. when i brought it up to a friend in reovery he said,"well no sh*t! have ya bothered puttin on their shoes and seein what crap they put up with?? would you trust you?"
conversation over.
i had a lot of work to do to get the trust back, which there was no time limit on, and must continue it, not for anyone else, but for me.
